Philip in universe 27B has a knack for asking tough questions.
The thing is, I don’t think he’s trying to be helpful, I think he just likes to make people sweat.
So he asks things like:
Now, how are we going to get by on just one salary?
Whether as the Philip in universe 221B sees the difficult situations and comes to the kitchen table with ideas.
“If we switch our shopping to Lidl and change our breakfast to cereal everyday, we could get by on €325 a week”
Safe to say, Philipa in universe 221B much prefers her Philip than Philipa in universe 27B.
